A train carrying hazardous chemicals has come off the tracks 30 miles southwest of Detroit. The crash has come just 13 days after a freight train carrying vinyl chloride derailed along the Norfolk Southern Railway in East Palestine, Ohio. It is unclear what happened, but the police said there were no injuries.
Congresswoman Debbie Dingell said in a statement: “We are also in touch with the relevant federal authorities, including the EPA.
“At this time no one is aware of the release of any hazardous materials, the car carrying hazardous material has been put upright and is being removed from the area of the other derailed cars, and EPA is dispatching a team to ensure public safety.”
